Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Utah, Ariz. – The Bridge Creek Fire, which is burning on Navajo Mountain approximately 5 miles from Lake Powell and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, is located on Navajo Nation lands and is approximately 800 acres in size. Aircraft supporting firefighters on the incident will be using Lake Powell to refill buckets and tanks to aid in the firefighting effort. The aircraft using Lake Powell will consist of helicopters and fixed-wing Super Scoopers (amphibious aircraft). Glen Canyon rangers will be providing vessel support during aircraft operations on the lake. Until further notice, boaters are advised to remain toward the south wall of the canyon and to avoid Oak Bay as they are traversing between Dangling Rope to Rainbow Bridge. Recreation in the main channel should be limited to transit only. Boaters need to monitor marine radio channel 16. A temporary flight restriction is also in place for public safety during aerial operations. The Bureau of Indian Affairs Navajo Region Fire Management, Navajo Division of Public Safety, and Navajo Division of Emergency Management are leading the fire response, with Glen Canyon National Recreation Area Park Rangers supporting the aviation operation within the recreation area.

Coconino County will expand fire restrictions in coordination with the Kaibab National Forest. Stage 2 restrictions will take effect on Wednesday, June 18, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. for all unincorporated areas within the boundaries of the Williams Ranger District. At this time, unincorporated areas surrounding the Tusayan and North Kaibab Ranger Districts will remain outside of fire restrictions.   This expansion joins the Coconino National Forest, City of Flagstaff, City of Sedona, State Lands, and all surrounding unincorporated areas of Coconino County.   Fire restrictions are implemented to help prevent human-caused fires and to limit the exposure of visitors during periods of potentially dangerous fire conditions. Decisions about fire restrictions are a collaborative effort with area land management entities and are based on a combination of carefully measured factors. Criteria used to determine when to implement restrictions include current and predicted weather, fuel moisture, fire activity levels, enduring drought, and available firefighting resources.   During Stage 2 restrictions igniting, building, maintaining, or using a fire fueled by combustible materials such as wood, charcoal, briquettes, and/or coal is strictly prohibited. Using a device that is solely fueled by pressurized liquid petroleum or LPG fuels that can be turned on and off is allowed only in a developed site. Smoking is also prohibited, except within an enclosed vehicle or a developed site. Additional prohibitions include the use of internal combustion engines for common household-only activities, such as landscaping or property maintenance and repair unless they are equipped with a spark arresting device. Stage 2 also prohibits welding and/or the use of acetylene or other torch with an open flame. The use of tracer or incendiary rounds of ammunition or explosive targets is also strictly prohibited.   A developed site is defined in the County’s Wildfire Defense Ordinance as an area that is barren or cleared of all overhead and surrounding vegetation and combustible materials within a 15 foot radius of the device.   The public is reminded to always be extra cautious when recreating on public lands, regardless of restrictions. Violations could result in fines and/or jail time.   For information on Coconino County’s Stage 1, 2, and 3 fire restrictions please visit: www.coconino.az.gov/firerestrictions.

The only exception is using a stove or grill that is solely fueled by pressurized liquid petroleum or pressurized liquid petroleum gas (LPG) fuels. Smoking (except within an enclosed vehicle or building, a developed recreation site, or while stopped in an area at least 3 feet in diameter that is barren or cleared of any flammable material). Blasting, welding, or operating any acetylene or other torch with an open flame. During the hours of 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., operating a generator, chainsaw or other equipment powered by an internal combustion engine for felling, bucking, skidding, processing, road building and woodcutting during industrial operations or firewood gathering capable of igniting a fire. An exception is allowed for operating generators with an approved spark arrestor in an area barren or cleared of all overhead and surrounding flammable materials within 3 feet of the generator. Restrictions and closures typically remain in effect until the area receives significant, widespread precipitation.
